Overview

What it reported doing in 2025
Project and investment: acquiring, originating, holding, selling, providing financing, or otherwise making investments of equity interests, debt interests, intangible interests, joint ventures or other partial interests, participations, leasehold interests, options, and similar rights or other interests , direct or indirect, in or relating to property operated (or to be operated) as affordable housing. The fund will help to relieve the poor and distressed, eliminate racial discrimination, combat community deterioration, enhance community engagement, and lessen the burdens of government.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 81% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and program spending has grown recently. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence.
